Cards top No. 1 Orange in Freedom finale (AP) A reserve guard that Louisville coach Rick Pitino considers so bashful, he sounds shy even when he yells, made sure to send venerable Freedom Hall out with one more memorable game.

No. 4 Duke routs Heels, shares ACC title (AP) Jon Scheyer stood near midcourt after his home finale at Duke. As he soaked it all in, he couldn't help but crack a wry smile.

Spurs G Parker could miss 6 weeks (AP) The San Antonio Spurs will have to find a way to win without Tony Parker for a while. Parker broke a bone in his right hand at the end of the first half, putting a damper on the Spurs' 102-92 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night. "He's got a broken hand. He'll be out six weeks," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said.

Diabetic Freeman's 24 points lift Hoyas (AP) The scoreboard kept track of Austin Freeman's points. The trainer kept track of his blood sugar levels. Both were fine, and so was No. 19 Georgetown.

Butler's late OT hoop gets WVU by 'Nova (AP) Some situations conjure up great images. Even if they don't happen.

Patriots, DL Wilfork agree to terms (AP) Two-time Pro Bowl nose tackle Vince Wilfork has agreed to a long-term contract that will keep him with the New England Patriots.

Wilfork announced the deal on his Twitter feed and Patriots spokesman Stacey James confirmed Saturday that an agreement had... Iowa St. stuns No. 5 Kansas State in OT (AP) Beating ranked teams on the road is something Iowa State has rarely done -- this decade, last decade or any decade. Before facing No. 5 Kansas State on Saturday as 15-point underdogs, the Cyclones were 7-104 away from home against ranked squads. Now, thanks to the biggest upset in the Big 12's regular season, make that 8-104. Twins' Nathan leaves with elbow problem (AP) Joe Nathan appears to have avoided the problem that struck John Lackey the past two years -- a troublesome spring training injury.

Mavs hold off Bulls, win 11th straight (AP) Dirk Nowitzki insists he has never played on such a talented team, not even when the Dallas Mavericks reached the NBA finals four years ago. One problem.
